Investigation on the Cortical Communication (CortiCom) System
The CortiCom system consists of 510(k)-cleared components: platinum PMT subdural cortical electrode grids, a Blackrock Microsystems patient pedestal, and an external NeuroPort Neural Signal Processor. Up to two grids will be implanted in the brain, for a total channel count of up to 128 channels, for six months. In each …
Human Amniotic Mesenchymal Cell Secretome for Neurodegeneration and Neuroinflammation
Neurodegenerative diseases are debilitating conditions characterized by chronic inflammation, leading to dysfunction of both the non-neuronal cellular components of the central nervous system and peripheral blood immune cells. Thus, it is crucial to develop an innovative therapeutic strategy that not only effectively contrast neurodegeneration but also aims to reduce inflammation. …
Gut Peptides and Bone Remodeling in Children With Neuromuscular Disorders
Both GIP and GLP-2 reduce bone resorption (measured as CTX) in healthy adult individuals. In this study, we will investigate whether GIP and GLP-2 reduce CTX in children with spinal muscular atrophy, duchenne muscular dystrophy, or cerebral palsy.
Investigating the Impact of Electrical Stimulation on Facial Pain, Jaw Movement and Oral Health in People With Motor Neuron Disease.
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of non-invasive electrical stimulation, when placed on the facial muscles can reduce facial pain and improve jaw mobility, and chewing in individuals with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Primary Lateral Sclerosis (PLS). The secondary goal is to evaluate the …
Assessment of a Portable Digital Device for Quantified Analysis of Markerless Walking in Volunteers With Neuromuscular Diseases or Asymptomatic Volunteers
In recent years, knowledge of neuromuscular diseases has advanced considerably, and new therapeutic avenues are beginning to emerge. The proliferation of clinical trials has created a need to identify biomarkers that are both sensitive to changes and specific to the disease. Current gait tests only consider the time factor and …
Imaging Biomarkers in ALS
The purpose of the study is to determine if we are able to find one or more biomarkers of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Primary Lateral Sclerosis (PLS) using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans at different levels, 3 tesla (3T) and 7 tesla (7T). A biomarker is a measurable characteristic …
Retention and Re-Engagement in Treatment for Addiction Following Serious Injection Related Infections (RETAIN)
This project is a pilot study of an adapted intervention of an existing Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) treatment retention intervention called Recovery Management Checkups (RMC). This intervention has been adapted to better fit the experiences and unique issues of those that have been hospitalized with serious injection related infections (SIRI) …
Study of Olutasidenib and Temozolomide in HGG
The goal of this study is to determine the efficacy of the study drug olutasidenib to treat newly diagnosed pediatric and young adult patients with a high-grade glioma (HGG) harboring an IDH1 mutation. The main question the study aims to answer is whether the combination of olutasidenib and temozolomide (TMZ) …
Quantification of Hsp90 in the Human Brain
This study tests the radiolabeled molecule ("tracer"), \[¹¹C\]HSP990, using positron emission tomography (PET) imaging to assess whether it can be used to measure levels of Heat Shock Protein 90 (Hsp90). The protein Hsp90 plays an important role in how proteins in the brain fold into their three-dimensional structure and how …
Pilot Study of ZetaFuse™ Bone Graft for the Treatment of Cervical Degenerative Disc Disease
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to test the safety and preliminary performance of the ZetaFuse Bone Graft in patient requiring fusion of the C3-C7 vertebral bones due to pain or loss of neurological function. Participants will be treated with ZetaFuse during surgical intervention to reduce pain and …
